The mission of the Drafting & CAD Technology Program is to provide specialized classroom instruction and practical experience in preparation for employment in the field. The course prepares individuals to assist engineers and architects in the design and drafting of electric circuits, maps, machines, and structures. Using computer workstations to create a drawing on a video screen, students learn how to fill in technical details using rough sketches, specifications, codes and calculations and store the data electronically so that revisions or duplicates can be easily be made. Proper use of drafting tools and equipment, geometric construction techniques, and blueprint reading to fill in technical details is also taught. The curriculum includes civil, architectural, electrical, structural, manufacturing and mechanical drawing; technical drawing and AutoCad and it’s applications. The course emphasizes safe and efficient work practices, quality workmanship, and employability skills.

CAREER OPPORTUNITIES

Upon completion of the required units of instruction, the student is employable in a variety of environments that range from small architectural firms to major corporations businesses.
